SAN DIEGO — Tech giants Apple and Amazon are denying a report by Bloomberg Businessweek that they are among nearly 30 companies that had their hardware compromised by Chinese spies that allegedly implanted tiny microchips for the purpose of accessing their networks.
Both Apple and Amazon, as well as server vendor Super Micro Inc., issued statements Thursday that strongly refuted the report, which said the attacks were first discovered in 2015.
